Two categories are used to describe space advertising: obtrusive and non-obtrusive.
- Obtrusive space advertising is advertising in outer space that is capable of being recognized by a human on the surface of Earth without the aid of a telescope or other technological device.[1][2]Since advertising in space can become a source of space debris and obscure the view of space from the ground, the practice of obtrusive space advertising is regulated by both international and national laws. While space advertising is limited by both contemporary regulation and technological capability, space advertising has been found in a variety of forms in popular culture.
- Non-obtrusive space advertising is the term for any other type of advertisement in space, such as logos on space suits, satellites, and rockets.[1]
